So, on a daily basis, we get to hear things about peoples “rights,” some of which reside nowhere in the Constitution, how this person is that label or these people hate this group. But that’s a conversation for another day. I just find it grossly hypocritical for liberals to claim that Conservatives want to limit this right or that right based on no factual information what so ever. However, if somebody from the Right calls a Dem out for doing the same thing, then they are just playing politics… really? Look in the mirror and take your freakin’ medicine! Look at the current swirl of stories and polls involving Obama vs. the Catholic Church. Libs defend the point that women’s’ health is an important issue and they have the “right to choose.” Now don’t get me wrong, I am all about women getting to be healthy, but the right to choose (which does not reside in the afore-mentioned Constitution) cannot trump the actual 1st Amendment, which lays the groundwork for freedom of religion. I have a hard time wrapping my head around somebody’s right trumping somebody else’s right. And why is it only a Libs rights that are assumed defendable? If women have the right to choose, then why doesn’t the Church also have a right to choose, but in the aspect of what medical expenses they are willing to insure? How is it acceptable for somebody to put a crucifix in a jar, pee on it and call it art, but it’s not acceptable for the Prophet Mohammed to be parodied? Why is the Christian expected to shut up, but the Muslim retaliation of car bombing is par for the course? Why is it when I say I am Conservative, I automatically hate gays and women? But show me where any women’s rights organizations have protested Islam’s sharia law, where women are completely subservient to men, including the point where a woman has to have four male witnesses to support an allegation of rape. If those witnesses cannot be produced, the woman is found to be an adulteress and stoned to death, but I hate women because, why? Don’t forget, gays are also put to death under the same theocracy. And lastly, why are white men the only people capable of racism? Why is it acceptable for the New Black Panther Party to stand outside a polling place intimidating white voters with night sticks and forcing said voters to leave before they cast their ballots not a voting rights and hate crime? The answer to that is because our African-American Attorney General said those laws are only for blacks and that whites will never be victims, but that isn’t racist. How does being Conservative equate to Nazi or the KKK? For those not aware, Lincoln and MLK were GOP, while the KKK, 3rd Reich, and Jim Crow (laws) all stemmed from socialists/democrats… but I’m the bad guy? Ready for a big secret… Planned Parenthood was founded by Margaret Sanger (a progressive), who initially called it the Negro Project. She wanted to place “family planning” services in poor and black neighborhoods to “eliminate the human weeds.” So, unless you’re willing to wear a label yourself, please, stop applying them to me. Your game of projection (calling me what you are) will no longer work, I shall not sit in silence and be considered the perpetrator of awful acts, attitudes, or beliefs just because…

Grow a Set!
Normally, at this juncture I would go on a giant tirade about how our President is a huge liar and is greatly misrepresenting the work done by his pal Harry Reid and the US Senate. I would rant and rave at how insincere it is to claim the GOP wants to "raise taxes on working Americans," because the House did not pass the Senate's version of a budget, which recently means a very, very short term extension, in this case about 2 months. Generally, expletives would be flying around as I lay out how the Senate has not passed a budget in more than a thousand days (yes, thats over 3 years.) But not this time, this time I am coming after the Republican leadership and establishment who cannot seem to do the right thing and look like the Good Guy at the same time.
You see, the House GOP is completely aligned with what their voters wanted when they were elected, especially the 2010 Midterm, where there was a bigger swing in seats in the House than any other time in the last 60 years. They have it right, no more piddly extensions so we have to have this discussion again before the snow melts (in Ohio). The Repubs want to do a full year, which is how spending and budgets and all that stuff is supposed to be done. But the Dems in the Senate pulled some slight of hand by passing the extension as they were closing up shop for Christmas, and leaving town before the ink was dry, therefor, not allowing for the process of a committee that would work out a compromise between the two different bills, as the House's bill did not exactly match the Senate's bill. Pretty sneaky, and it even got the support of Obama, who has at least all the available jets ready to fly to Hawaii for the Obama family "whatever they celebrate." Ya see, the GOP need to stand in front of every camera and every microphone and demand the President get off his plane and that the Senate reconvene to complete their Constitutionally mandated job of passing a budget. They need to be blunt and let the American people know that the Dems just wanted to go home for Christmas and did not want to do what they should to collect their paychecks (our tax dollars). But instead, I hear all the rejects on the news stating things like the Repubs are just playing politics by adding the Keystone Pipeline to the bill, putting the President in a tough spot to make a hurried decision. Good, I am glad they did, 50 plus thousand jobs would do us good right now, plus the oil from a friendly neighbor (Canada) instead of an unstable region who wants to kill us would be seen at the pump. By the way, it would not be hurried either, this pipeline has been studied for 3 years. At any rate, the GOP needs to speak out with what their intentions are, what the problem is, and stop being so nice to a political opponent who has no interest in the American process, only in re-election. Please, Republican leadership, listen to your voters, follow your principals, and grow a set!

SORRRY... Threw Up In My Mouth A Little
So the news is out, our brave, selfless, heroes are comming home from Iraq, so let me, from the bottom of my soul, thank you for what you have had to sacrifice so that I can sit here and run my mouth while my wonderful children can watch whatever they want on a bajillion channels in a nice toasty house after eating (close your ears First Lady Obama) chicken mcnuggets and apples. Without your (and your familys') unique ability to swallow your suffering to put God and Country first, we would not be able to continue as the greatest nation the human experiment has ever created.
With all that said, and said sincerely, I have to appologize that I about drove off the road as I listened to the President's speech at Ft. Bragg where he put himself in front of the Country (again) to feed his insatiable ego. I am sorry that your joy of being reunited with your families, possibly in time for the holdidays.... ahhh, screw it... in time for Christmas has to be ruined, politicized, and downplayed by someone so unAmerican as Mr. Obama. I remember hearing him say he was "the only major candidate who did not support going to Iraq." And while that may be the case, in spirit... he did not actually stand on the floor of the US Senate and rail agaisnt the "cause" to the face of VP Cheney, as Barry was in the Illinois STATE Senate at the time. Speaking of the "cause," it was not applaudable, or acceptable, when President Bush spoke of the evils of the Iraqi Regime at the time, I do believe Mr. Obama stated it was "a stupid war." In fact, he actually went all around the Middle East appoligizing for America's arrogance once he became Commander in Chief. But now, however, now that they are his "orders," the "cause is noble and just," and we did the things to bring freedom to people who so desperately needed it. REALLY? How gullible, ignorant, uninformed, and naive do you think we are, Barry? How dare you stand in front of the people who signed up to possibly die for our Country and ooze your slimy, dishonest drivle? Playing on the emotions of families willing to sacrifice all to play at their heart strings as "the one who brought them home" makes my stomach heave. I will be heartless and shallow enough to say that it figures, you ran on ending the War when you were elected, now you will seek re election on the emotions of bringing home our loved ones... shame on you. I hope I sit here, bantering away, not alone, but among many who find distaste in what was said, among many who will, and do, remember your hate for something for which you now want credit, among many who just threw up in their mouths a little bit.

Not Here!
Recently it has made local and national news that a 200 lbs. 3rd grader was removed from his family's home at the request of Children's Services, which was granted by a juvenile court judge. The reason for this horrendous act was because the boy COULD POSSIBLY develop health issues like hypertension IN THE FUTURE. The argument is that the boy is in IMMEDIATE DANGER. The last time I checked the definition of immediate, there were a few words missing that were used in this violation of a family's rights.... could possibly, and in the future. Do I like to see kids, teen agers, and adults so heavy that they cannot walk up a flight of stairs, let alone enjoy life? No, that's far from what my ideal physical health utopia would look like. However, I do not think a level of unelected bureaucrats (Children Services) should be able to lobby a judge to do anything, especially remove a child from a family environment that is absent of drug/alcohol abuse, sexual/physical abuse, or other rampant crime. The child, while heavy, seemed to be well adjusted, participating in many programs at school, along with being an honor student. By the way, the 3rd graders 16 year old brother, tall and skinny... doesn't strike me as the Clumps where the entire family has resigned to chronic overeating. At no time during this report has there been any indication that the boy has had any test done to review any systemic issues, like thyroid issues. That sounds like a logical next step, but no, we would rather knock on some body's door and drag their kid out of the house.
So, where does this slippery slope end? I am going pose a few questions in an effort to make the point that government needs to be put back on the leash that the Founding Fathers put it on. Its not a long stretch to say that now the parents cannot be obese, as this is setting a bad example for the kids, at which time, the children need to be taken from their family because their parents are overweight. In that case, I would lose my kids, as I currently fall into the medical category of "morbidly obese." I could argue that we try to monitor our eating habits where we have vegetables at almost every meal, candy and cookies are kept at a minimum, there is no Pepsi or Coke in the fridge, and we encourage fruits for snacks. I also exercise a minimum of 30 minutes a day, often times taking one of the girls on a bike ride with me, or encouraging them to join me in non-weightlifting workouts. But alas, I am a bit chubby, but don't come knockin' on my door demanding to take my children. It would not be hard to now make the argument that my kids need to go into foster care because they might be outside playing on a sunny day and I forgot to put sun screen on them... it must be my master plan to give my kids skin cancer, gotta take 'em away! At what point does it stop? This is why our Founding Fathers wrote the Constitution in the manner they did, in attempt to stop the creation of an over reaching, self imposing, police state government. Please, America, stand up for yourself. Call or write your elected officials. Get to know where those people stand on issues, find the people who want to put that dog back on its chain, before we turn into Socialist/Communist Europe West. Stand up for yourself before doing so will get you jailed. Exercise your rights, as is the body, the more you exercise, the healthier your rights.

Honest Answer? Honestly.
So, rumor has it Herman Cane won the Florida Straw Poll last week. While he is one of my early favorites, I need some of the Democrat supporters to answer an honest question honestly. So, here it goes, how does the "Tea Party is racist" narrative continue as a black man seems to garner the support of the freedom-loving, Constitutional-following, Americans that have been proclaimed by left wing minded people in Hollywood and government to hate people based on their skin tone? And more to the point, how are the mainstream media elite going to quesiton and disagree anything that Mr. Cane does or says, would that not in turn make them the racists? The claim that to be the case when we criticize Barry. I want to see the loudmouthed Janine Gerafalo (spelling?) call Herman Cane a racist because ummm, well... geez, that just wouldn't work would it? I want to see somebody on Comedy Central tell Mr. Cane he hates black people because he wants all Americans to get off their duffs and pursue something besides PlayStation. I want to hear the soundbite of some ignorant, pompus ass in the Congressional Black Caucus (a racist entinty in and of itself) make a statement liking Herman Cane to wanting African-Americans to swing from trees. They have all said it about those of us who find ourselves aligning with the back to basics ideals of the Tea Party and have little to endear us to either of the main parties. They have stepped totally out of bounds in trying to diminish the impact of the grass roots movement. I'm sure it won't be long untill the same things are said about a black man, who does have experiences living through segregation and racisim, using the token phrases like he is "an oreo" or an "uncle tom." I see him as the poster child of what the American Dream is all about, he busted his butt to make something from his modest childhood, and now he stands before us, offering us the answers to the questions Obama and his followers cant honestly answer.

Riddle Me This, Mr. President
So, Mr. President, your out there campaigning for both your next term and you $450 billion stimulus package that "Congress must pass now." A few things I need anwered before I even consider not considering this a total waste of time and money.
First, where in the bleepity bleepin' heck is the $1 trillion we gave you 2 years ago? If you can give me an destination that does not include some labor union, teachers union, "green" jobs, or global warming funding, I might consider it not complete crap for about.... times up! That failed, as predicted by everybody who is not you, Harry Reid, or Princess Nancy.
Second, if you can give me a reason that counters the issues that lie within the Solindra fiasco, again I might think about, nope, never mind. Not sure how that situation is not some how illegal, and possibly impeachable. But I do know, without a doubt, it was a complete failure and waste of taxpayer money, to the tune of $500 million plus. For those of you who have not heard of Solindra (if Im spelling it right), it was a "green" company that was going to make solar panels, that due to Chinese competition, among other things, was doomed to fail before they even broke ground. But, Mr. Obama came to the rescue, giving a government guaranteed loan for the above mentioned half a billion. By the way, the "venture capitalists" involved in Solindra? Major Obama donors.
Lastly, and I hate to do this to the loyal readers, but why should you even be President after the death of Boarder Patrol Agent Terry? Again, not heard of this? For anybody who has the time to do a little searching, check into Operation Gunrunner, Operation Gunwalker, or Operation Fast and Furious. The Dept. of Justice Claims it to be a law enforcement operation, except that it extends into Mexico, which is where our jurisdiction stops. What it really was meant to do was create statistics about gun violence on the Mexican boarder with drug runners in an effort to argue more gun control laws. Unfortunately, for Obama, the stats were not there, so they started taking guns south, against our own laws. Sadly, some guns have made their way back north, and have been used against our own agents... so why is our government in the business of selling guns to drug cartels? Riddle me that, Mr. President.

Enough Already!
Some of you may have watched the "Presidential Address" about creating jobs, blah blah blah. I did not do so myself, but let me give this a shot. Barrack made several mentions about infrastructure jobs and putting Americans back to work, to the tune of costing the tax-payers about $400 billion. We need to fix our crumbling roads and bridges and barfady barf. WE HEARD THIS 2 YEARS AGO!!! Mr. Obama, you got $800+ billion, and what can we show for it? NOTHING! Dont give me this jobs created or save crap, the overall impact was zilch. I am sure we Amercians also got lectured about civility and playing nice, but have we noticed that only happens when he wants something. When the American people want (or dont want) something, we are too dumb to know any better and he is going to do whats best for us. Any mention of "bi-partiasanship"? Again, see the previous statement about when he wants something. How about the Tea Party? Any mention of them "holding the Country hostage?" How about being "terrorists?" Did he happen to appoligize for any of the "Tea Party is racist" rhetoric that is flying around, even during speeches that introduce him? Did we get to hear about "green jobs?" Biggest load of crap ever, please see my previous post about Al Gore. How about the "Millionaires and Billionaires that make over $250 G not carrying their fair share?" Still waiting on the math that explains the $750 G gap, then I will argue how that steaming pile of cow dung will not work. I got a few ideas, Mr. Obama, for how YOU can create jobs, and not government ones. First, lift your unConstitutional (as ruled by federal judges) moritorium on oil drilling in the Gulf of Mexico, BAM! Tens of thousands of jobs almost immediately. Second, get your Dept. of Justice out of Boeings ass! Stop sueing them because they went to a Right to Work state and left the Unions in the dust, ironically, the layered more jobs at the Union plant due to anticipated orders, POW thousands of more jobs in a blink of an eye. Third, repeal Obamacare, its expensive, kills jobs, and eventually, will lead to the complete ruin of the most successful and technically advanced medical systems in history. Lower corporate tax rates, as we are the highest corporate tax rate in the world, and we honestly wonder why jobs are leaving? Get rid of capitol gains taxes, instant incentive to invest in American business. Anybody wanna place a wager on what happens on Wahl Street tomarrow? Betcha the Dow drops, it does everytime Barry opens his mouth, but we shall see.
